Set down stacks of coloured hexagons and let matching colours gather until ten of a kind clear.
About Hexa Sort
Three small stacks of coloured hexagonal tiles are offered at a time, to be placed on any empty cell of a honeycomb board. Wherever neighbouring stacks show the same colour on top, those tiles slide together onto one stack, sometimes setting off a chain of further merges across the board; ten or more of one colour gathered on a single stack are cleared away. The board has thirty-one cells and fills steadily, so the craft is in placing each stack where it will feed a merge rather than simply where there is room — and in keeping a few cells free for the awkward mixed stack that is always coming. More colours enter the mix as the score climbs.
How to Play
Drag a stack from the tray, or tap it and then tap an empty cell, to place it on the board. Neighbouring stacks with the same top colour merge; ten or more of one colour on a stack clear and score. A new set of three arrives once all three are placed. The game ends when the board has no room left.
💡 Tips & Strategy
Place for the merge, not for the room. Before setting a stack down, look at the colour on its top and find an empty cell touching a stack with the same top; placed there, it is absorbed at once instead of occupying space. A stack put down with no matching neighbour is a cell lost until something eventually comes to meet it.
Give each colour a neighbourhood. When the same colours are kept in the same region of the board, every new stack of that colour has an obvious home and merges run on in chains. Colours scattered evenly across the honeycomb produce a board where nothing touches its match, and it fills in a few turns.
Use the centre for your builders. An interior cell has six neighbours and an edge cell only three or four, so a large stack you are growing towards ten gathers far more merges in the middle. The edges and corners suit stacks you simply need to park, whose top colours you expect to be slow in coming.
Watch the stacks close to ten. A stack at eight or nine of one colour needs only a small feed to clear, and clearing is the only way cells come back. Keep the empty cells spread around rather than grouped together, so that whatever colour arrives next there is a space beside its match; and when the board is tight, prefer the placement that clears over the one that merely merges.
